 .SYNOPSIS...Mild daytime temperatures and afternoon southwest
 breezes are expected through the holiday weekend. Chances for 
 showers and thunderstorms return for Memorial Day, with lesser 
 chances thereafter.
 
 &&
 
 .DISCUSSION...Dry, westerly flow aloft and slightly above normal 
 500mb hghts will lead to average overnight lows and slightly above 
 average daytime highs for the next few days. Aside from a few high 
 clouds passing by and normal, diurnal winds, there is not much else 
 to talk about tonight.
 
 Minor updates were made for overnight lows and to add some smoke to 
 the weather grids, no further updates are planned.

 into the morning as VFR conditions persist throughout the forecast. 
 Light winds will strengthen slightly by 18Z out of the southwest 
 with afternoon gusts peaking at 15-20kts. Aviation discussion not 
 updated for TAF amendments.
